Gannon - time to learn

STOCKPORT County boss Jim Gannon is hoping his players are beginning to learn from their mistakes. Tuesday night's defeat against League Two bottom side Lincoln City, was the fifth consecutive league loss at Edgeley Park for County. But they have a chance to end that dismal run with the visit of play-off hopefuls Wycombe Wanderers tomorrow.

STOCKPORT County boss Jim Gannon is hoping his players are beginning to learn from their mistakes.

Tuesday night's defeat against League Two bottom side Lincoln City, was the fifth consecutive league loss at Edgeley Park for County.

But they have a chance to end that dismal run with the visit of play-off hopefuls Wycombe Wanderers tomorrow.

"The biggest problem my players have is taking something out of the Lincoln game and learning from their experiences," said Gannon.

"My biggest problem as a coach is that I see some of the coaching working, but then I see other aspects that are infuriating.

"That's when I've made it quite clear to certain players how I want them to play effective football and it's not happened.

"There are signs in the last three games that we've controlled the games better and we've got two skilful wingers involved in the game. Unfort- unately, it's fallen down a little bit in terms of our finishing."

Gannon is expecting no favours from a Wycombe side that have won just once in their last six league games.

Difficult

"Wycombe play 4-5-1 and they're going to make it difficult for us with the counter-attack so we're going to have to defend well," he added.

Striker Adam Proudlock, who was controversially sent off 15 minutes from the end of the Lincoln game, should be available.

According to the club, ref- eree Carl Boyeson has acknow- ledged that he made a mistake and have been told that the red card would be rescinded.

Versatile Matty McNeil, who missed out against Lincoln with a knee injury, should be fit again giving Gannon options in both attack and defence.

Anthony Pilkington has been having problems with his thigh muscles because of a growth spurt and may not be risked in the game.
